Responsible Cat Ownership

As a cat owner within the Shire of Gingin there are a number of responsibilities of which you must be aware. These include microchipping, sterilisation, and registering your cat, ensuring that your cat does not threaten or harm another person or animal, and does not cause a nuisance.

In certain instances the Shire may approve the keeping of more than two cats on a premises.
